#3 Wade was diagnosed with testicular cancer at 16
Matthew Wade was diagnosed with testicular cancer at the tender age of 16 by accident. During a football match, Wade got hit on the groin with the blow causing him immense pain.
He consulted a doctor after the match because there was a slight swelling and much to the horror of his family, the doctor discovered something even more serious. "Had it not been for that hit in the testicles, I wouldn't have had any idea," Wade had said in a chat with Foxsports.com. "It was just fate. It could have gone on for months and I would not have known what was happening."
Beating cancer, Wade emerged a braver figure and his love for cricket and football multiplied.
